Wow a confession

I’ve got a bit of a confession to make. I’ve been planning for weeks to get a blog schedule together, posting every day between Monday and Friday. I was going to write these posts in the evenings and schedule them for 1pm every day.

However, a rather big something has decided to walk back into my life..well actually it was emailed into my life. A free World of Warcraft month long subscription.

Now I stopped playing WOW three years ago, when I realised it was taking up far to much of my life. I knew people in the guild that I was in at the time better then I new my real friends. I was loosing track of all things reality, sleep patterns went out the window as I was up until all hours questing and levelling. Then it hit me, cancel that subscription and get outside in the real world.

Now all of a sudden darned blizzard sent me a free trial on my old account, unbeknown to me and before I knew it, that month had passed and I was well and truly hooked again. In all honesty within days of re-entering the world I was addicted again.

When I first went back in my character was level 20, within a month I was level 61. Im now not only having to pay the £9 a month, I’ve had to order the latest versions to make sure I can keep levelling. Sad huh?!

There is a small benefit of all this i suppose, that is the fact it has kept my overdraft and myself out of the pub.

So, I would like to introduce you to my online alter ego “mebigguy” a level 60 human warlock.

I saw this and it made me laugh.

A Break

Relaxing In The SunI’ve had three weeks off from blogging and I also took some time off from my job. During this time I did absolutely nothing, I went absolutely nowhere at all, and I did zero amount of work for my own company. I just relaxed and spent time unwinding in the sun, boy was it good!

I’ve now had just over a week back in the office and am still feeling quite relaxed. I’ve had a couple of days with a colleague who was down from Edinburgh, now whenever we meet up, whether it’s me going to Edinburgh or him coming here always tends to turn into a very boozy time! Needless to say this trip was no different. We had the added benefit of being taking out by my (and now his) supplier for IT Kit for a nice lunch.

So now I’m back in the swing of things, it’s now time to up my game blogging again! So keep checking back between Monday’s and Friday’s for some hopefully interesting posts!
